How to read this table
The table rows group languages: Russian, Buryat, and other languages specified by the population are listed separately. This allows for a comparison of the popularity of state and national languages among different ethnic groups in the region. Indicators can be compared horizontally by selecting a specific people, or vertically by assessing the prevalence of a particular language among all indigenous small-numbered peoples listed
What is visible in these numbers
The table is 17% filled: Rosstat does not publish every cell, and the gaps are left as they are rather than interpolated.
